OK I have been given permission to convert this arcade code to a vforums style as long as I am the one to host it, and thats call ok and stuff, but I have come across a problem. I have been working on converting ti almost all day and I think I have it almost finished, but I can't seen to figure out why it won't work. Can someone please tell me why it wont work and show me how to fix it?

Code:

Select All

temp = document.createElement(name);

wow I just remembered this, I still need help

I've only got a moment online right now so I can't fully look over it, but for starters you'll need to remove all the instances of "index.cgi" - vForums doesn't use the Common Gateway Interface, and also uses .htaccess modifications for cleaner URL's.

all index.cgi's have been taken out and i dont know how to do .htaccess modifications yet.

~Code above updated~

I am not good with JS but I can state that the classes could be fixed. I don't believe vF uses something like: windowbg2

I thought I changed that, anyway changed and the code above is updated

That would be another Forum's CSS and not compatible with vF.

crap i didnt see taht at all until you just pointed it out, ok i'll fix it up soon.

The external JS file is attempting to run a function called arcade() and as far as I can see, no such function exists in your code. You'll have to have a look at the original code, and possibly contact Charles to see how to fix it as you seem to be missing required portions of the code.

ok well i'm going to have to update the code then, because this is everything I got from him, but he has been doing a lot of work on the proboards version adding in a highscore system that he cant even get to work, so i would have a lot to remove and dont reallyt wnat to take the risk of removing something that was needed. But ok i'll get the code very good and convert what I can and post the code.
